Diana Krall

I was in Fort Lauderdale last Thursday and saw/heard Diana Krall.  Second time, first was in Wilkes Barre PA after Wallflower cd, this one after her recent one.  Two quite different concerts, both outstanding.  This one was "jazzy", an upright bass, a drummer, guitarist, fiddle/violinist (and a pianist/vocalist).  5 great musicians on the stage, and a wonderful singer.  She is wonderful live.  Highly recommended, as equipment reviewers often say.  Worth the price of admission.

That was not my point so I hope you’re commentary is not aimed at me. I happen to love DK music as a matter of fact I own mostly ever album she has ever made. However I do agree with some of the comments that vocally she is not in the same class as other female vocalist. Does that mean she is not a good singer, not at all... Again she is a very talented singer and pianist. 

Cheers

I have audiophile friends who put down Harry Connick Jr.  I have some of his recordings ... the guy has chops. He can sing and play the piano really well to my ears.

It's all a matter of personal taste.  I have two Nina Simone CD's but prefer DK by a wide margin.   There is no wrong or right when it comes to personal preferences.  My Dad loved Perry Como and the Lawrence Welk show, whereas I like DK and The Daily Show.

That is true 
there are folks that love justins, Marc Anthony, Rick Martin, but it doesn’t mean they are musicians — they are pop artists and so is DK

DK just knows how to market her best.  Even her's is well below many other's 'best', its kinda make some people happy thru music.  Nothing wrong with that.

If you're sold on her performance style, all her CDs are awesome.  Otherwise, Live in Paris CD is likely the only one for repeated listening.
